As always a late reminder: Drawing lessons start this Sunday (4/3/07) at 3pm-7pm in Management Room 1.25. If you're not sure where the room is (I only found it on Tuesday) we'll be meeting in the union (wherever is open but Libs by preference) just before 3 and then walking over. If you're not keen on drawing but have some other ideas for thing we can do on Sundays, why not pop along and let me know and we may be able to get it started.

Also one of our more pro-active members has decided we needed a forum so went an made one for us. It's about ready to use, so why not go sign up and start chatting. It can be found here!Cheers Ste!

I have more details about the Edinburgh Anime and Animation Society's Mini Convention:

What's on: Minicon 2007When: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 25th @ 10am until MidnightWhere: PleasanceDescription: AASOC's holding its annual convention in the Pleasance,with competitions, raffles, games, anime and finishing off in theevening with a film night!

The cost is £6 per person on the door but if we give them a list of people going in advance we can get the discount rate of £5. So if you want to go for the cheap rate let me know before Saturday the 17th so I can get the list to their President. Either e-mail me or grab me on Tuesday.

Let's start with a big thank you to all those who came out and supported us for Pirates Vs Ninjas. I think a great time was had by all and we're in good stead to run another event in the near future! If you've got any comments about the night, then please let us know.

This week is about half way through the year to we'll be starting the second set of series for our series nights (providing I can get to the post office tomorrow). Like last time we'll be showing six series and you'll get to vote on which three we'll show for the rest of the year. The meeting will be at the usual time in the usual place.

Finally I've been told that Edinburgh University Anime and Animation Society will be running their annual Mini-Convention on the 25th of February. No specific details yet but I think it'll cost £5 for the whole day and there will be Anime Screenings and a dealers room. More details when I get them. If there is enough interest we may be able to invade as a group.

That's all for now.

See you Tuesday

P.S. If anyone has any photos from the night feel free to send them in so that we can put them on the website.

Another general newsletter type thing. As always we're meeting as usual on Tuesday for our weekly screening. This week is a movie week so suggestions as always.

The main highlight of this week however is our event on Saturday the 3rd of February, Pirates Vs Ninjas at 9pm-2am in Zero Degrees in the Union. In short, a Animé theme and J Pop/Rock night with drinks promos. Cosplay is optional but will give you a discount on entry, £2 for cosplayers £3 everyone else. The main themes are pirates and ninjas, but feel free to come in cosplay from a series - you still get the discount. We're also still taking song requests, so mail them back to us if you're wanting some songs played. Everyone is welcome!

As with any event we're looking for volunteers to help out with the event and promotion. We're trying to get a bridge link stand for Thursday the 1st so if anyone has some time free on Thursday and wants to help out please let me know. Also we're looking for people to help out on the door on the night, so if think you wouldn't mind donating some of your time to make the execs life a little less stressed, e-mail us or grab me on Tuesday.
